Anand did really well to come back from a tricky position in Game 4 and force a draw, and the defending world champion admitted he made a few mistakes right at the top.

"Something went wrong in the opening" he said after Game 4 on Wednesday ended in a tense and exciting draw. "I made one illogical move after the next and then I missed something with this knight move. And then I was just basically lost.

"I am sure he had many wins in what he played. Towards the endgame it was a little bit scary in this four rooks endgame but finally when I gave a check on a8 and then moved my rook, I was safe," Anand said.

"I was lucky twice. Just before the time control I could give a check and made my next move and reached the time control. It happened twice."

Carlsen was pretty happy with his performance in the previous encounter, in a world championship which has seen the player with the black pieces surprisingly have the edge.

"I was doing pretty good, and then when I won the pawn I was very optimistic," Carlsen said. "He kept on finding resources and I was missing some little things. He really fought very well. It's bit of a pity to have spoiled such a good position but it was a very good fight."

Anand will now play with the black pieces while Carlsen has the advantage, on paper, not going by the form in the series, with the white.
